It seems whatever the peeps at the ICC were smoking has run out, and they’ve started thinking a little more clearly again. (I almost said “started talking sense again”, but that would have been wildly inaccurate.)
Thank God that’s over with. (For now, at least.)
(I seem to be justifying a lot of things I […]

In response to the very serious problem of good light stopping play, Derbyshire have asked the ECB to help resolve the problem.
“It seems a simple solution to a potential problem. As long as the boundaries are the same and the opposition are in agreement we can’t see a problem with it,” chief executive Tom Sears […]

Monty Panesar, England’s spin bowler has developed a cult following amongst leagues of English supporters. He has made himself famous for being a frankly terrible fielder, and equally useless batsman. English fans cheer and jeer whenever he fields (or fails to field) a ball. It’s all supposedly light-hearted stuff, but some peeps have even gone […]

This has got to be a first? We’re all used to bad light stopping play, but the light being too good? Brilliant!

Those poor old Aussies, eh? Nothing’s going right for them at the moment. Bless ‘em. Not only was the vomit-inducingly-titled “Australian Cricket Family” (who came up with that? Dear God!) questioned over its ability to weed out the Aussies from the Rest, but when it came under fire on Day 1 of Ashes ticket-release, it […]

If you were Sanath Jayasuriya right now, you’d be pretty pissed off. Though if you actually were SJ, then you’d be unlikely to be reading this blog as you’d be much too busy spitting feathers at being left out of the test team for the second test between Sri Lanka and England, at Edgbaston.

With a 2-1 lead going into the 4th ODI against India, Lara is optimistic about the prospect of a winning series, his first back in charge.
“But as I said we’re not taking anything for granted. We set a target, India didn’t get it; we chased a target down today. So they must be a little […]

No sh*t, Athers. But the prudent observation is that grassroots initiatives are paying off - not least by getting youngsters involved in cricket.
Grassroots initiatives are thriving. The Chance to Shine campaign has now garnered £9 million in private funding and a commitment from the government that the National Sports Foundation will commit £2.5m per annum […]

Shane Warne is once again in the news for something other than cricket, and this time it’s nothing to do with his allegedly lascivious extra-Cricketicular (get it?) activities. Nope, once again his image is at stake - specifically his hair.
An advert for a hair-loss treatment featuring Shane Warne has been found in breach of industry […]

Six and Out was privileged enough to get some comment SPAM today. It wasn’t the usual SPAM variant (viagra, poker, free money) but a site claiming to offer some good info, on Cricket. I took a look at the site, and yes, it basically wants to be another Wikipedia. Sadly though, the integrity of its […]
